CURTAIN-POLE BRACKET.

$PECIFICATEON forming part of Letters Patent No. 819,089, dated June 2, 1885.

Application filed March 28, 1885.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, ROBERT S. GOULD, of East Orange, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curtain Pole Brackets, of which the following is a specification.

This invention has reference to an improved extensible curtain-pole bracket; and it consists of a bracket provided with a fixed nut, and of a pole-supporting piece having a threaded shank passing through the guide, the shank being flattened at one side, so as to be clamped by a setscrew passing through the nut, as will more fully appear hereinafter, and finally be pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my improved curtain-pole bracket, shown partly in section; and Fig. 2 is a top View of the same.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

A in the drawings represents a bracket, which is made of two pieces that are attached to the wall, and which are riveted or otherwise attached to a fixed nut, 13, at their outer ends. Through the nut 13 passes the threaded shank O of a curtain-pole-supporting piece, D, the bent outer part, D,of which has aset-screw, E, for retaining the pole in position thereon. The threaded shank O is made flat at one side by partly cutting away the threads, so as to be olampedby a set-screw, B, passing through (No model.)

the nut 13. By cutting away the threads at one side of the shank O the turning of the shank O in the nut 13 is prevented after the supporting-piece D has been adjusted to support the curtain-pole at a proper distance from the Wall. The nut 13 is made of suitable length to give a steady and reliable support for the shank O, which is turned therein by taking hold of the bent supporting-piece D until the required distance from the wall is obtained, after which the bent portion is secured rigidly in position by the clampingscrew B and prevented from turning.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination of a supporting-brackat having a fixed screw-nut with a bent curtain-pole-supporting piece having a threaded shank passing through said nut, substantially as set forth.

2. The combination of a supporting-bracket having a fixed screw-nut and a clampscrew with a bent curtain-pole-supporting piece having a threaded shank flattened or cut away at one side, substantially as set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.

ROBT. S. GOULD.
